2015 Christmas Gift Guide: 20 Lingerie Gifts for £50 and Under

Are you looking for lingerie gift ideas that cost £25 or less? If so, head to my previous gift guide here, this one focusses on lingerie that costs £25.01 up to £50.

Whereas my last gift guide included a lot of ‘stocking fillers’ like hosiery and pasties and single items such as knickers, when you’re budgeting £50 you’ll find it a whole lot easier to buy your giftee a 2-piece set. Alternatively, if you’re happy gifting a single item then for this price you can start to move away from the budget brands and shop with mid-range ones, particularly if you nab something on sale.

Glitter and the Moon Just Rose french knickers, £28 (sizes S-L)

Glitter and the Moon Just Rose french knickers, £28 (sizes S-L)

Did you catch my interview with the founder of this brand new indie loungewear brand? I love these knickers so much I’ve bought a pair for myself, and with their romantic rose, they’re a fantastic way to treat the one you love this Christmas!

pantalaimon-gold-sequinned-suspender-belt-600x559

Pip And Pantalaimon gold sequin suspender belt, £29.95 (sizes UK 8-22)

Pip And Pantalaimon gold sequin suspender belt, £29.95 (sizes UK 8-22)

What could be more ‘Christmas’ than glittering gold sequins?! I also adore that this suspender belt has double grips, which made it look more luxe and unusual, and it’s available in a very wide size range. Oh, and did I mention it’s handmade?

h-and-m-black-lace-bodysuit

H&M black lace bodysuit, £29.99 (UK sizes 8-16)

H&M black lace bodysuit, £29.99 (UK sizes 8-16)

This affordably-priced bodysuit is made from a lovely lace, with just a nod to the currently popular strappy trend. With underwired cups and sized by clothing sizes only, this is likely going to fit average bust sizes, so if your recipient is particularly small- or large-busted, I’d advise choosing something else.

buttress-snatch-red-ruffled-satin-knickers-600x257

Buttress and Snatch Cocinella knickers, £32 (sizes S-L)

Buttress and Snatch Cocinella knickers, £32 (sizes S-L)

Gloriously big and ruffly, these frilled knickers are made in the UK from duchess satin, and the colour is oh-so-Christmas.

glimmer-green-chantilly-lace-tap-pants-cropped-600x450

Esty Lingerie Glimmer tap pants, £32.99 (sizes XS-L)

Esty Lingerie Glimmer tap pants, £32.99 (sizes XS-L)

One of my own designs here, which I had to include because I designed them especially with Christmas in mind! They’re made from a shimmering green lace (far more sparkly than it looks) and are highly limited-edition – already sold out in one size.

dollhouse-bettie-hip-flask-garter

Dollhouse Bettie Ribbon garter flask, ~£34.48 (sizes S-L)

Dollhouse Bettie Ribbon garter flask, ~£34.48 (sizes S-L)

Know someone who loves their liquors and their pin-up style lingerie? Then this is the perfect stocking filler! It does include the stainless steel flask, and is made from a silk jacquard – pair with a bottle of some fancy tipple like cognac and your gift is complete!

pretty-wild-lingerie-love-flower-black-mesh-bra-set-352x600

Pretty Wild Lingerie Love Flower bra set, ~£34.69 (sizes 32A-36DD and XS-XL)

Pretty Wild Lingerie Love Flower bra set, ~£34.69 (sizes 32A-36DD and XS-XL)

This is a massively reduced set by a very luxurious brand, so the perfect opportunity to treat someone to a truly indulgent gift normally outside of your budget! I’ve reviewed these knickers (and the matching babydoll – an alternative gift idea to the bra if you’re unsure of bra size) here, and was particularly impressed by the luxury packaging. Definitely gift-giving material!

lilysilk-red-silk-knickers

Lily Silk embroidered silk knickers, ~£37.60 (sizes XS-L)

Lily Silk embroidered silk knickers, ~£37.60 (sizes XS-L)

These 100% mulberry silk (a super soft type of silk!) knickers are well-priced, and are somewhat reminiscent of the typical red-with-white-snowflakes look, but in a more year-round appropriate floral design.

blue-silk-nightie-with-lace

Backseam silk nightie, ~£38.91 (sizes S-L)

Backseam silk nightie, ~£38.91 (sizes S-L)

I know I have been featuring a lot of red so far in my Christmas gift guides, because it seems to be a popular option. But if you’re looking for an alternative, it doesn’t get much more wintry than icy blue and white! This is an amazing price for a silk nightie, particularly a handmade one with such gorgeous lace detailing.

glimmer-green-sparkly-lace-chemise-400x600

Esty Lingerie Glimmer chemise, £39.99 (sizes UK 6-12)

Esty Lingerie Glimmer chemise, £39.99 (sizes UK 6-12)

Also part of my Glimmer collection, this chemise is made from all-over sheer lace with shimmering, metallic green thread woven into it – wonderfully festive if I may say so myself!

boux-avenue-tamsin-red-lace-babydoll-set-444x600

Boux Avenue Tamsin babydoll and briefs, £40 (UK sizes 8-14)

Boux Avenue Tamsin babydoll and briefs, £40 (UK sizes 8-14)

This red babydoll is made from a gorgeous lace that I think makes it look a lot more expensive than it really is – particularly when you remember that the £40 includes a matching satin brief, so it’s not only value for money but a ‘complete’ gift too. Perfect for the woman who always matches her underwear!

dentelle-etc-grace-cream-babydoll-376x600

Dentelle etc… Grace babydoll, £45.99 (sizes S & L)

Dentelle etc… Grace babydoll, £45.99 (sizes S & L)

Made in the UK by this independent brand, the light, creamy-white mesh is wonderfully wintery, and with its loose style you don’t have to worry so much about getting the perfect fit.

agent-provocateur-red-tie-side-knickers-470x600

Agent Provocateur Classic AP tie-side knickers, £45 (one size)

Agent Provocateur Classic AP tie-side knickers, £45 (one size)

In the £25-and-under gift guide I featured a pair of tie-sides by Agent Provocateur’s cheaper sister brand, L’Agent, but if you’re budgeting £50 then you can get the real deal! These are an iconic Agent Provocateur design from one of the biggest names in luxury lingerie, and who wouldn’t love a little pink box under their Christmas tree?

boux-avenue-jemima-long-chemise-444x600

Boux Avenue Jemima chemise, £45 (UK sizes 6-18)

Boux Avenue Jemima chemise, £45 (UK sizes 6-18)

Available in a variety of colours (including Christmassy red and classic black), this ankle-grazing chemise is perfect for luxuriously lounging around during the Christmas holidays and all weekends to come.

boux-avenue-peta-satin-pyjama-set-444x600

Boux Avenue Peta pyjama set, £45 (UK sizes 6-18)

Boux Avenue Peta pyjama set, £45 (UK sizes 6-18)

Alternatively, if your recipient is more into PJs than nightdresses, how about these classic, shirt-style pyjamas in a sophisticated black satin with lacy trims?

boux-avenue-kiki-navy-blue-chemise-and-robe-set-444x600

Boux Avenue Kiki chemise & robe set, £48 (UK sizes 6-18)

Boux Avenue Kiki chemise & robe set, £48 (UK sizes 6-18)

Yes, more Boux Avenue, but I really do think they have a fantastic selection of perfect loungewear and nightwear gifts for this budget! This 2-piece set in particular is fantastic value for money at £48, and the glossy, dark blue and cream colour is also another chic alternative to red for Christmas.

boux-avenue-rose-blue-fluffy-dressing-gown-444x600

Boue Avenue Rose dressing gown, £48 (sizes UK 6-16/18)

Boue Avenue Rose dressing gown, £48 (sizes UK 6-16/18)

Let’s face it, as pretty as most lingerie is it’s not very warm! I wear my fluffy dressing gown more than probably any other garment during the winter, so this rose-embossed, hooded robe from Boux Avenue is sure to be a gift that’s appreciated and used.

intimate-britney-spears-red-satin-kimono-cherry-450x600

Intimate Britney Spears Cherry kimono, ~£48.33 (size Large)

Intimate Britney Spears Cherry kimono, ~£48.33 (size Large)

Did you hear that Britney Spears launched her own lingerie line? It seems to have totally fallen off the radar, PR wise, but there were a handful of pieces from the debut collection that I quite liked and this is one of them. The dark red is an elegant but festive look, perfect for Christmas.

cervin-sheer-black-polkadot-suspender-belt-600x422

Cervin Plumetis suspender belt, ~£48.71 (sizes S-XXL)

Cervin Plumetis suspender belt, ~£48.71 (sizes S-XXL)

I recently reviewed a version of this suspender belt in plain mesh, and was really impressed with the quality. If you know someone who loves stockings, you can’t go wrong with a classic, 6-strap suspender belt. This one will match anything else that’s black, but the polkadot mesh ensures it doesn’t look too plain and ‘boring’ for gift-giving!

dotties-delights-sheer-show-love-letters-nightie-400x600

Dottie’s Delights Love Letters nightie, £49.99 (sizes S-L)

Dottie’s Delights Love Letters nightie, £49.99 (sizes S-L)

Handmade in Chicago by this independent brand, this retro-inspired babydoll is, like the Grace one above, a very loose fit so it’s near impossible to get the size wrong for your recipient!

 

Is there anything on this list you’re thinking of giving, or would love to receive?
